Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Daniel 11:23
COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD
23. TREGELLES notes three divisions in the history of the "vile person," which is continued to the end of the chapter: (1) His rise ( Daniel 11:21 ; Daniel 11:22 ). (2) The time from his making the covenant to the taking away of the daily sacrifice and setting up of the abomination of desolation ( Daniel 11:22- : ). (3) His career of blasphemy, to his destruction ( Daniel 11:22- : ); the latter two periods answering to the "week" of years of his "covenant with many" (namely, in Israel) ( Daniel 9:27 ), and the last being the closing half week of the ninth chapter. But the context so accurately agrees with the relations of Antiochus to Ptolemy that the primary reference seems to be to the "league" between them. Antitypically, Antichrist's relations towards Israel are probably delineated. Compare Daniel 8:11 ; Daniel 8:25 ; Daniel 11:22 here, "prince of the covenant." work deceitfully —Feigning friendship to young Ptolemy, as if he wished to order his kingdom for him, he took possession of Memphis and all Egypt ("the fattest places," Daniel 11:34 ) as far as Alexandria. with a small people —At first, to throw off suspicion, his forces were small. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-24" class="com-number"
